Creating that party vibe with #musicYouCanFeel!
Always respect the art.
Steve Miller of the iconic band "Steve Miller Band" who were the performers of "Abracadabra" which was sampled for the single "Houdini", writes a letter to Eminem on Twitter
"Hello EM,
There is a long chain of stories, poetry, lyrics and musical roots that have crossed cultures and generations inspiring the whole world for hundreds of years and in all those lines of thought, music and rhythm there are special artists who assimilate it all and create new original ideas from Your own feelings and experiences. You're one of those timeless creators building something new on a long musical legacy of original artists.
To me it's Les Paul, T-Bone Walker, Bill Doggett, Johnny Guitar Watson, Howlin' Wolf, Jimmy Reed, The Beatles, Chuck Berry, W***y Dixon, Leiber & Stoller, Cannonball Adderley, John Coltrane and Miles Davis.
I have always tried to give credit, honor and respect to the people who have most influenced my life, as well as acknowledge their copyright and share knowledge of their work through my own work.
I didn't know it would be like this when I was a kid trying to make a living playing music and recording records, I just knew I had to respect the art that preceded me and also fight for it among all the scoundrels, thieves and impostors.
There aren't many artists who take the time or make the effort to defend themselves and at the same time recognize and respect their influencers. Marshall Mathers you are an exception and you are on my short list of people who respect art.
Being included in your process makes me feel good as I continue to sing and play the music I love. I feel honored.
Thank you very much,
Steve Miller"
I'm digging the crates as I type this to bring you the best in Halloween Hits for tonight! I kick my show off at 9:30 TONIGHT!

As a reminder to myself, today I'm thinking Mungo Jerry - In The Summertime needs to be remixed, or used in a mashup.

There are a few distinctions about DJs that the general public isn't aware of... I promise that the guy playing iTunes off a playlist is NOT the same thing as the guy with two turntables.
To all my artist friends, there's always an audience out there for you. Keep at it. You'll find each other. β€οΈ
It's not Thursday, but Imma post this throwback anyway.
It's almost time to get down Goodman style, for the Firefighters' Street Dance Fundraiser!
I find it funny... as I dig through digital crates while working on some event prep, paired with "organization" and "housekeeping" duties, I can tell the approximate time in my career that I acquired the songs by their bitrate.

Classic! π€£
Cheech & Chong on TikTok We had to do it man π
Why does everyone on TicTok act like they're breaking the story that the Russian song by Moreart is explicit?
Yeah Karen, we got it. π
Everybody that doesn't speak Russian doesn't care. Everyone that does speak Russian already knew.
So who's coming to my next gig? To his is the sound rig for that show. π€£π€£π€£
Lord. Have. Mercy.
Choices... 90s Party Attire for tonight! JNCO for the win, but which ones? π€

If only the ears didn't come with eyes...
Being a Midwestern in the U.S., Detroit has influenced my musical tastes enormously. As a DJ (and human being), I don't care what color the artist is, or the producers are... If it makes me move, if it builds energy and excitement within me, if I can't wait to share it with my friends, it's a win!
I did not understand/know that these icons of electronic music faced these issues. I've seen Seth Troxler at least a dozen times at DEMF/Movement. Juan Atkins, Derrick May, Kevin Saunderson... These guys, and many others are responsible for an entire subculture and music that I have grown such a passion for.
To learn that people don't get booked because of color instead of talent frankly pi**es me off, and you should be pi**ed off too. If it's not enough that they're being cheated, I'll take it a step further to say WE ARE ALL BEING CHEATED! How many great performances have we not heard because the booking agents had a racial bias? How much great music have we not heard because the artists were didn't get to play based on color.
In a scene that's supposed to be about acceptance, this makes me so angry! π‘
